Bingo. Should be no problem to get 21 or so of those farm boy's to fill the FO vacancies. It must have been a good deal to vote Yes for it. The first LOA was a good deal too based on the votes tallied, though the numbers that actually bid it said otherwise...

I wouldn't bet against you but it might be 2-3 too high. During the practice bids for that last excess rodeo, 8-10 (?) guys bid it vice going to the backseat of the Whistling Sh1thouse. Same guys might think it would be smart to grab it now, instead of waiting for the next excess goat rope when they may not be able too. Of course they will be poor, have SARS, live in a 6 square foot apartment with chickens and are forbidden from having fun, however, some guys like that!

IMHO, it's far better to wait for an excess bid and hope HKG FO is full. 727 FE isn't as bad (presumably) when you're getting widebody passover FO pay for it.
